About Evidencity

Evidencity is a platform for manual records retrieval focusing on records required for financial, legal, property and corporate transactions worldwide.

Founding Story

Evidencity founder Samuel Logan has spent hours standing in line. So have you. As an investigative journalist in South America, he was waiting in line across dozens of countries to retrieve documents in support of his work.

Samuel decided to develop software to help organize the communication between project managers and their local providers, who like Samuel, were spending time waiting in line for documents. It took several years, but by the end of 2018, Samual had assembled a network of local providers covering over 160 countries. Nearly all of Evidencity's local providers are local reporters.

In March 2016, Samuel quietly brought Evidencity to the marketplace and began testing the beta platform with consulting firms in the due diligence and compliance sector. By the end of the first year, over 100 companies had access to the platform. By the end of 2018, over 200. As the company grew, Samuel and his team began to take the next step towards building a company that was focused on local providers while keeping an eye on the needs of its growing customer base.

Today, Evidencity serves hundreds of small, mid-sized, and enterprise clients, as well as dozens of smaller, sole-proprietor investigators. One of Samuel's proudest moments came when a nationally-recognized newspaper requested access to Evidencity and used the platform to complete document collection for a story it published several weeks later.
